Weekly Debrief 1st December 2023

In many ways in the current climate its easier than ever to achieve your goals. People want perfect conditions, in my experience life rarely if ever grants you the 'perfect' time to do THE thing.

even just by turning up you have beaten probably 80% of the competition.

"Tough times create tough people, tough people create good times, good times create weak people, weak people create tough times." - someone.

Four Thousand weeks - Oliver Burkeman

Martin O’Looney - Addiction

Martin has been on the podcast before were we discussed the amazing work he does in the community.

Today I wanted to talk more about Martins history with addiction and how he uses this lived experience to help others.

It was great to talk to him again.

The White Pill - Michael Malice

Everyone should read this book!

The White Pill: A Tale of Good and Evil https://amzn.eu/d/flNGtRS

There have always been gaps in my knowledge of history particularly the events that took place in the 20th century inside the Soviet Union.

I was never taught about this in school, sure everyone is aware of the atrocities of world war 2 and the Holocaust.

Have you ever heard of the Holodomor?

This book really affected me, some of the events took place with in my lifetime.

I’m embarrassed to say that despite remembering the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989, I had no idea why it was even put up.

Michael Malice writes a wonderful, barbaric, beautiful, tragic account of the events that took place under Lenin, Stalin and how Gorbachev was really the hero when it came to the fall of the Iron curtain.

An amazing book.
